Sayyiduna Abu Humayd Sa'idi (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) appointed a man from the Ansar over the charity. His name was Ibn al-Lutbiyyah. When he returned, he was summoned so that his account could be taken. He said: "This is yours, and this was given to me as a gift." When this reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "We send one of you as an agent over the wealth which Allah has made us guardians of, and when he returns, he says: 'This is yours, and this was given to me as a gift.' Why does he not sit in his father's or mother's house and see if he is given any gift? Whoever among you works for us in any matter, let him present whatever little or much he brings before us. Let each of you beware that he will come on the Day of Resurrection carrying a camel on his neck that is groaning, or a cow that is mooing, or a goat that is bleating."
